Trust Membership Nears 100


Eleven months since the River Nairn Swans and Waterfowl Trust was formed, and our membership today is just shy of 100 . The Trust has not officially advertised for members as yet, but has grown just by word of mouth and recognition that the River Nairn Swans and waterfowl are a local attraction, and bring an added tourist dimension to the riverside.

Members will shortly receive our 2014 calendar, which I have produced myself in order to keep costs to a minimum, I will be delivering some of these, rather than pay the 70p postage - a real Scot !!!  Seriously, all membership fees are used for the welfare of the river wildlife and the trustees receive no payment whatsoever. Our Chairman Martin Shand has used his car and trailer for a donation of wheat grain from former Councillor James Campbell of Inshoch Auldearn., and other members like George Stephen of Fishertown have supplied Carrots from Forres when required. 

No wonder our Swans and ducks are in the best of health, being cared for by the River Nairn Swans and Waterfowl Trust !
Why not Join us, Family membership is £20, or £15 for an individual, and help provide proper food for our beautiful river birds.
